June 4, 2014

Ciao tutti!

Lots to report this week.  It really was a great week.  Our numbers didn't show it but we really did a lot!

Sunday, the Giro D'Italia finished here in Trieste.  Giro D'Italia is a big bike race that happens every year and is comparable to Tour Di France...I think that's how you write it.  In the middle of the city there were tons and tons of people to witness the end of this race.  Anziano Gardiner and I saw this as an opportunity to do some missionary work.  We stamped tons of pass along cards.  We each had a stack about 2 inches high....and we passed them all out.  Every single one.  Now we'll wait and see what happens.

On monday our ward did a hike.  It was beautiful and it was great to get out into the wilderness a little bit for some fresh air.  We had a couple of ward members bring friends that weren't members of the church.  We were able to explain a little about who we are and we have plans to try to see them this weekend.  Church activities are missionary activities!!

Yesterday we had an appointment with a man that we haven't known for very long.  We had taught him the first two lessons in a park that is close to his house.  Yesterday we asked if we could go to his house to teach him.  Luckily, his girlfriend and son were home.  They offered us dinner, so we had the opportunity to talk about who we were with the girlfriend.  After dinner we taught the restoration.  They both seemed on board!!  Really cool.  However, they both have a lot of problems that they have to sort out.  We will pray for these things and hopefully see some miracles happen in the next month! 

I would upload pictures of my adventures but the computer wouldn't allow it this week...maybe next week...

Well hope you all have a great week!  Love you all!  Ciao!
